More about Taylor Swift's re-recorded albums

Taylor Swift started re-recording her albums following her public dispute with Big Machine Records over her masters. The singer was unable to purchase the masters from the label due to unfavorable terms set by the label and its owner, Scooter Braun.

With no legal recourse to the matter due to lack of precedence, the singer started re-recording albums using her copyrights to gain and retain the rights to her own work.

The re-recording was met with widespread acclaim, with the three albums re-recorded so far, Fearless (Taylor's Version), Red (Taylor's Version), and Speak Now (Taylor's Version), peaking as chart toppers and breaking multiple streaming records on Spotify.

The re-recordings have also become part of the larger discourse on artists' rights, with the singer receiving widespread support in her struggles to secure her rights, including from legal scholars, who see Swift as setting the precedent for other artists to rescue their own projects.
